Solutions for sustainable transportation are needed, and a way to promote this is by having a bike-share system (BSS). Today Gothenburg has a BSS with conventional bicycles, Styr & Ställ, located in the city centre. Due to the growing city the system might need to develop and expand. This thesis investigates the potential of e-bikes in Styr & Ställ and the possibilities to expand the system due to e-bikes. This both include an extensive literature review on BSS, interviews and case studies with European cities with electric BSS, and analysis of where to develop the system geographically. It is found that there are some topographic limitations in the current system in Gothenburg, which can be approached by e-bikes. It is also possible to go further with an e-bike and therefore include more areas in the system. With e-bikes more and other groups of users can be reached, for instance older people, physically limited people, or people in context that do not want to arrive sweaty. Analyses were done in order to find suitable areas for an expanded BSS. The expansion areas that were found for the system are mainly the sub-districts Majorna, Masthugget, Frölunda Torg, Krokslätt, Lunden Olskroken, Gamlestaden, Lindholmen and Rambergsstaden. This is an overall radial expansion except from a corridor towards Frölunda Torg and Gamlestaden. Furthermore, stations based on destinations of interests such as public transport nodes, parks, squares, universities, and working places were suggested and located. The conclusion is that there is a potential for electric bicycles in Styr & Ställ and that the system should be combined with both conventional and electric bicycles, in order to approach a broader user group. The system is also recommended to expand to the areas mentioned above. People that already use the BSS will be able to continue to use it in the same way, and people that prefer an e-bike in order to cycle, will them too have a socially, economic, and environmentally sustainable transport alternative that also improves the public health. Key words: electric bike-share system, combined bike-share system, bike-share system, electric bicycle, Styr & Ställ, bicycling, sustainable transport III Elcyklar i lånecykelsystem En utredning av potentialen för elcyklar i Göteborgs lånecykelsystem Styr & Ställ Examensarbete inom masterprogrammet Infrastructure and Environmental Engineering SOFIE ERLANDSSON OLIVIA HÄGGLÖF Institutionen för bygg- och miljöteknik Avdelningen för geologi och geoteknik Forskargrupp Väg och trafik Chalmers tekniska högskola SAMMANFATTNING Göteborg håller på att växa, både geografisk och invånarmässigt och blir en allt tätare bebyggd stad. Därför behövs det transportlösningar som är hållbara, och en sådan lösning kan vara lånecykelsystem. Göteborg har idag ett lånecykelsystem, Styr & Ställ, som har sin utbredning i de centrala delarna av staden. Eftersom staden växer kan det finnas ett behov att Styr & Ställ också gör det. I det här examensarbetet utreds potentialen för elcyklar i Göteborgs lånecykelsystem Styr & Ställ. Detta görs genom en litteraturstudie av lånecykelsystem, samt intervju- och fallstudier av europeiska städer som har lånecykelsystem med elcyklar. Det framkom att i dagens Styr & Ställ finns topografiska begräsningar, men dessa kan lösas med hjälp av elcyklar. Elcyklar möjliggör även längre resor vilket innebär att fler områden kan inkluderas i systemet. Vidare visade det sig att elcyklar kan öppna upp systemet för nya grupper i samhället, till exempel personer som inte vill bli svettiga, personer med fysiska begräsningar eller äldre personer. Det gjordes analyser för att ta fram lämpliga områden för en utvidgning av Styr & Ställ. Av dessa analyser framkom det att primärområdena Majorna, Masthugget, Frölunda Torg, Krokslätt, Lunden Olskroken, Gamlestaden, Lindholmen och Rambergsstaden är lämpliga. Detta medför att en utvidgning skulle ske huvudsakligen radiellt, med undantag för utvidgningar längs stråk till Gamlestaden och Frölunda Torg. Dessutom placerades föreslagna stationer ut vid målpunkter som kollektivhållplatser, universitet, parker, torg och arbetsplatser. Slutsatsen som dras är att det finns en potential för elcyklar i Styr & Ställ, men då som ett komplement till de vanliga cyklarna samt att systemet bör utvidgas till områdena nämnda ovan. Ett kombinerat system gör att personer som redan använder systemet kan fortsätta att göra det på samma sätt och personer som föredrar att cykla med elcykel har också de ett socialt, ekonomiskt och ekologiskt hållbart transportalternativ som även förbättrar folkhälsan.

RiverCity lies in the heart of the Region of Gothenburg on the northern riverbank opposite the city center, and is surrounded by large housing estates, old industrial areas and new commercial cores. As well as it is connected with interstate highways with the Region and the metropolitan areas of Stockholm, Copenhagen and Oslo, as much it is still dissociated from its urban surroundings. The highway infrastructure forms strong barriers and a network of urban infrastructure which links it with its neighboring areas and the subregion is lacking. Connecting RiverCity is therefore its first challenge. RiverCity has a huge potential for urban development due to its strategic position inside the agglomeration, its sheer size and its key-asset, the riverfront.
